At the very least the title should have been 1,200 days of terror.. Caligula's first 200 days, prior to his illness were a success, praised by the historical sources, and honored by the Senate. In abolishing the treason courts, he ended one source of terror without imposing another.

I know he got killed - but I wanted to see how they showed his death!
